BREAKTHROUGH: Women's Entrepreneurship Pitch Competition (Boston)

Join in a celebration of women's entrepreneurship in the City of Boston and beyond as three high-potential founders take the stage and compete for $5,000, $2,500, and $500. The evening will kickoff with a keynote from Zoe Barry, CEO of ZappRx, who was named both to Inc's 30 under 30 list and to LinkedIn’s Next Wave of Top Professionals Under 35. Immediately following, three companies selected from a pool of growing startups participating in the WIN Lab accelerator program, will pitch their products and field questions from four esteemed judges.

Throughout the evening, audience members will have an opportunity to network and explore other startup ventures showcasing their companies. Indulge in learning about everything from bold black and white fashion to global communities of women travelers to technology companies connecting veterans to life-saving resources. Light food will be served and two local startup beverage companies will be there to happily fill your glasses, including Brazo Fuerte Brewing Company and Kuvee - the "new way to wine."

This event is made possible thanks to our strategic partners, the law firm of Gesmer Updegrove and the Women's Enterprise Initiative, who are putting up the $5,000 and $2,500 cash prizes. In addition, we would like to thank our venue partner, Accomplice, who has generously donated the space.
